so it seems that i have again stumbled into what i may consider a fun and interesting english course. previous experiences at the UW have proved the opposite, but this one begs to differ.
the content of the course breaks from the classic concept of an english course, which is basically to read a book a week, write a follow-up 10 page paper, take some midterms related to the readings, and end with a cumulative final comprehension.
this course seems to have less readings, which is a plus for my time and my money. on top of that, the assigned readings and the course agenda look pretty interesting. i'm actually looking forward to plagiarizing a paper as part of the coursework.
i must not forget that the very action i am performing right now is also part of the coursework. blogging. this shows that along with technology, our education is advancing in many great ways. it looks to be that another course may gain the right to be placed on my list of worthwhile things in college.

I agree! This course is BOUND to be interesting - however I must admit that when I first got the e-mail for this class, I was extremely nervous because I had NO idea what was going on (even after the 3rd reading), so I tried looking for a class change! But then I visited the course website and perused the assignments for this semester, and was SO happy that I didn't switch! The coursework seems so unique, practical (yet creative), and fun!
I can't wait to "Ghost-Write." Especially since we all have such unique styles of writing, trying to imitate another's writing will be, to say the least, interesting!
